Our Mission

To challenge the existing property laws which leave us open to exploitation, through: political lobbying, media attention and through the courts in a form of a UK test case.

Although we offer our members moral support, we are not qualified to give legal advice so cannot help in this way.

We encourage everyone to help each other by supporting the aims in our mission.

Join our groups to network and share information, help our campaign by taking action as on our Take Action page

Cash to Campaign

When our network was first launched 2 1/2 years ago, costs were minimal and easily and willingly funded by co-ordinators and members alike. Until now, we have never asked for a penny from anyone.

However, we have all done such a great job – the campaign is really taking off. It has reached the point that individuals cannot sustain the cost of running the campaign without some help.

Political lobbying involves traveling to London, as does meeting with our legal team who are making progress on a group action. There is a need for publicity material – leaflets, banners, business cards. TV and radio interviews usually involve going the regional studios.

A small donation from members towards running costs via BACS to:

Home Owners Rights Network
Sort code 30-98-97
Account Number 62928060

would help us to spread the word even further, especially if was a regular monthly amount. Everything donated will go towards running the campaign, which is why we are not using a third party platform.

The account holders are Halima and Cathy, and we have asked another member who is an accountant to join us in running the fund and see fair play.

Every six months we will publish here and on our FaceBook group a spreadsheet of what has been donated, how much has been spent and on what.

If there are surplus funds, we could add it to any crowd funded legal case we are running, with members agreement.

When we succeed in our aims and can all put our feet up, any surplus would be donated to a campaign with similar aims, after consulting with our members.

Who are We??

We are a group of ordinary home owners who feel exploited by their respective land management companies on privately owned managed estates with charges. We were initially put in touch with each other either by the Home Owners Alliance or the Greenbelt Action Group. Our co-ordinators are Halima Ali and Cathy Priestley.

We feel that isolation is a problem for home owners and that a network for mutual support and exchange of information initially would help home buyers who find themselves inadvertently in this trap. We are campaigning for a change in the law to offer us protection and redress and ultimately scrap this model being used for residential properties.

We began with this site and a Facebook group for discussions (April 2016). People who prefer not to use Facebook can comment on The Buzz articles (public) in our forum (private), subscribe to our newsletter or simply contact us to let us know they are there.

Strength in numbers has succeeded in raising the profile of the issue and our voice is growing louder!

By 20th March 2019 we have over 4800 in our FaceBook group and 486 estates representing over 91,000 households.
